Audio and video pauses automatically

Audio and video pause automatically (and sometimes pause and play) only when I use an internal (Youtube, google) or 3rd party software (windows media player, VLC, films &TVs ).

  1. It happens only when I am playing a video or audio.
  2. No virus (after scan)
  3. Since the spacebar key is usually associated with play & pause, I tried typing something in MS word. I did not see any auto space being generated between 2 letters. (tested for 5 mins)
  4. Autoplay and pause (sometimes just pause) occur maybe after 20 seconds. (it is random)
  5. I can actually see the virtual pause and play button is toggled. (no other error message is shown, it happens as if I am physically pressing the spacebar key.
  6. issues in Windows 10  

7. the window also very lag when it happening

  1. Driver issues? Which driver is it? Any suggestions or experiences? Please share your thoughts.

    Thank you for the reply.  It has been awhile since I have changed batteries.

    I did find a work around also, not a fix. If you put video on mute and then pause, it will start once again but this time when you pause, it stays paused.

    I don't use a wireless keyboard or mouse.

    Further the problem seemed to have disappeared on its own. 

    It seems like a bad update. Just wait it out... the update will happen.

    I have a Denon Home 150 speaker connected to my computer through Bluetooth. I'll try disconnecting that. All of my videos have been pausing recently and it's been maddening. I have a Dell XPS-15-7590 laptop with Windows 10. All drivers and updates applied.

    I disconnected my Denon Home 150 speakers from Bluetooth and now I can stream videos without pauses happening after about 30 seconds. Thanks A. Lozeman for the tip.

    Any idea why that was happening? Seems odd that a Bluetooth connection would do that.
